Harry Hall had been annoyed all day because of Helen Melendy, and he didn’t have much patience to talk to Leanne Richards, simply saying:
"Mom, I heard you’ve been troubling Helen again?"
The moment Helen Melendy was mentioned, Leanne involuntarily thought of the humiliation she had received in the shopping mall that day, her expression suddenly darkened, and with a cold huff, she said:
"That woman told you? Hah! A slut is a slut, saying she’s broken up with you, and yet at the turn of her head, she runs to you to tattle. This kind of woman..."
Harry’s face turned cold, his eyes seemed to harden with a layer of ice, filled with anger as he interrupted Leanne’s extremely distasteful words.
Even though she faced her own son, Leanne was still taken aback by the dangerous aura in Harry’s eyes.
"You... you actually talk to me , I am your biological mother!"
Leanne Trembled with anger, her eyes fiery as she glared at Harry.
"If you were not my mother, do you think I’d even bother arguing with you time and again?"
Harry, somewhat irritated, tugged at his shirt collar and looked at Leanne, deepening the warning in his eyes, and said:
"Mom, I’ve always made it very clear to you, the woman I’m going to marry can only be the one I hold dear. No matter what woman you force on me, it’s useless. Your shaming Helen only makes me dislike you more."
"You’d better keep out of things between me and Helen, whether we break up or continue on, it’s my personal affair, and no one can interfere, including you."
Harry narrowed his eyes, and the chill in them effectively silenced Leanne.
"I’m making myself clear to you again, if one day, I marry another woman, the only possibility is that I don’t love Helen anymore. Besides that, nothing you do can change anything, and..."
"If you keep playing your little games around me or around Helen, I can leave the Hall Family at any time. Conveniently, dad seems more inclined to hand the Hall Clan to my half-brother from outside."
At this point, Leanne’s complexion turned deathly pale, and just as she was about to speak, Harry didn’t give her the chance, continuing sternly:
"Mom, the Hall Clan doesn’t mean much to me. The person who can’t live without it is you, not me. If you don’t want to force me to give up the Hall Clan, you might as well continue to trouble Helen."
Leanne was truly frightened by Harry’s warning; she knew that what her son said was true.
Just his salary as a legal advisor for the Jones firm was enough for him to live a prosperous life. Moreover, although she did not know the specifics, she always felt that her son had far more money in his hands than what the Hall Clan could offer him.
Without the Hall Family, he wouldn’t be impacted at all, but if the Hall Clan fell into the hands of that bastard’s son, her standing in the Hall household would be absolutely untenable.
By that time, without her son and without the Hall Clan, what would her status as the distinguished Mrs. Hall amount to?
Nowadays, the reason she could still hold her head up high in the circle of wealthy wives wasn’t just because of her status as the lawful wife, but also because her son had control over half of the Hall Clan.
Even if William Hall cherished his illegitimate child, he could not carelessly hand over the Hall Clan to him.
But if her son voluntarily gave up...
Leanne’s heart couldn’t help but quiver; she absolutely dared not imagine what she would do if her son gave up the Hall Clan.
